instrumentalkompositionen. mit dem in den siebzigerjahren beginnenden siegeszug elektronischer tanzmusik hat sich der remix als produktionsmethode fest im musikbusiness etabliert. dabei ist die kunstform, bereits vorhandenes material neu und vor allem ganz persönlich zu interpretieren, ein phänomen, das es erstens schon vorher und zweitens in der klassischen musik gab. der new yorker pianist bruce brubaker ist ein künstler, der seine gesamte karriere diesem konzept gewidmet hat. er wurde dafür bekannt, stücke anderer künstler nicht nur nachzuspielen, sondern in deren kompositionen seine persönlichkeit originär einzuschreiben, so dass sie eine neue, einzigartige form annehmen. zu seinen besonderen stärken zählt die interpretation der musik von philip glass. auf seinem album -codex- geht brubaker einen schritt weiter, indem er gleich zwei originale auf künstlerisch editierende weise miteinander in dialog bringt. zum einen werke aus der -codex faenza-, einer erst in den 1930ern wiederentdeckten sammlung mit instrumentalmusik für orgel, klavier und harfe aus dem frühen 15. jahrhundert, zum anderen stücke aus terry rileys 1964 veröffentlichter zusammenstellung -keyboard study no. 2-.

there are hundreds of bootlegs out there to sate the ravenous soulero set, and so often they incorporate songs in the vast numero catalog. rather than beat them, numero joins them with our answer to the iconic east side story series. eschewing our classic look and standard-bearing copious notes for sardonic artwork and impeccable selections, numbero is proud to present a ‘bootleg’ you can be proud of (because it’s all licensed). this time we’ve set our sights on the most unique of soul cultures: the irreplicable melting pot of san antonio. included here are all songs never before issued other than in minuscule pressings on 45, never distributed outside of bexar county limits.

artist susana estrada was one of the leading figures of the “destape” during the late 70s and early 80s, a period in spain when sexual openness and freedom of thought exploded just when the country was coming out of a dictatorship. . besides acting in lot of movies and musical plays, susana as a singer also released a few 45s, cassettes and one lp, “amor y libertad”, produced by the great josep llobell, which is now regarded as a cosmic disco classic. from that album, cosmic record store selected two tracks for side a of this 12”, “gózame ya” and “quítate el sostén”. for the b side, the label has included three edits in a nu-disco & cosmic vein by producers james rod, javi frías and mr. absolut aka sergio peña.

this is pasomusic boss marc miroir s second single release of his second album identity kit. intakt is highly gripping and shows marc s affinity to 90 s techno tracks with filtered hi-hats and kicking bells. unison wax and beste modus artist diego krause gives his very own enthralling interpretation of intakt. comfort zone is a signature track of marc with the vocals of opera singer adam schilling. the playfully daunting vocals are set up with long delays, arranged to a warm and driving track with chords and dub sounds. kia & handmade produced the unbelievably strong techno remix. handmade is resident dj at tresor and also at marc s popular berlin party members and this is his very first release! kia released her productions on la peña and playhouse!

arno völker aka einzelkind has been a driving force in the world of underground house music for nearly a decade, rising to fame through releases on get physical, playhouse, mule electronic, cocoon and white as well as the infamous la peña and pressure trax (run with frost) imprints.
robin scholz is one of the most taleted artists we saw in the last years. robin gave his debut on our ten inch series with the *retrospective ep*. no wonder he released after that on pressure traxx, la peña & white.
this is just the beginning - we feel a long journey with the rhythm factory!

old friends who started their passion together are now compressed on this ep. patrick k moved from frankfurt to berlin, he is resident at the funky people party in frankfurt, a huge music lover and addicted to his studio. his sound is mainly based on drums and rhythms and he knows how to handle it.
martyne, the former staff member of the famous freebase-record store, is currently based in offenbach. after releasing several tracks on labels like cécille, be chosen and la pena, he delivers now this ep.

it is a huge pleasure for etruria beat to welcome to the family, for the first time on an italian label, martin swanstein, better known as martinez. the swedish/danish is best known for his release on labels such as moon harbour, cadenza, lomidhigh, love letters from oslo and la pena. martinezs first release, that kick started his carrier in 2000, was his >laidback grooves ep< on the notorious chicago based deep-house label guidance recordings. since that time he has been a regular on the worldwide deep/tech-house scene.

like hardly any other ambassador of modern rhein main house music, christian burkhardt has experienced a true rocket-like takeoff in the last year. burkhardts cocoon debut ep stopover goa has, after one year, still a place of honour in many djs record cases. also his legendary live set in the pouring rain at last years green & blue may belong to the lasting memories of a life dedicated to electronic music. the heidelberg-born producer has already worked for la peña, raum…musik and oslo, and his collaborations with einzelkind and sascha dive became a talking point, too. with his second ep for cocoon, he again sets new standards. theres nobody around who is able to alienate vocals from the collective memory of afro-american culture into a hallucinogenic cocktail without harmful side effects in such a way than burkhardt is. nevertheless, and despite the massive, forward-pushing bass drum and hand claps, he never loses the focus of his soul. so - open your mind, we wish you lots of fun with heart and mind and the considerably acid-like waffles, while the tropical-hypnotic seagull atmosphere of twentysecondcenturydrama already whets the appetite for the upcoming club summer season of 2012.

hamburg‘s very own stimming arrives on the hospitable shores of a freshly cut audiomatique with the wonderful ‚buxton pipes‘ ep. with releases on diynamic, freerange, terminal m and liebe*detail martin stimming‘s carreer was boosted by the underground hit „una pena“ last year and peaked in his debut album ‚refl ections‘ earlier this year. ‚buxton pipes‘, the lead track on the new ep, is a beautifully reduced, gentle roller that combines textural, shifting fi ltered percussion, phasing, effected melodies and a rich sub-room sound design that confi rms stimming‘s talents at working those subliminal zones. dainty, pretty and yet totally punchy at the right volumes, its a genuine slice of ultra modern micro-post-minimal- house. continuing the trippy, time-melting vibe perfectly, ‚kakusei‘ arrives with its pushing array of softened percussion and carefully extended spooky breakdowns. sliding and squelching through 7 minutes of prime tracky workout territory its another stellar addition to the record. finally the skipping ‚seepferdchen‘ throws a spanner in the otherwise smooth grooves with delicately jacked drum patterns and controlled sub-bassline throwdowns. super funky, ultimately reduced and sample-heavy it‘ll make those afterhours carry-ons all the more delicious. simply superb work from stimming on audiomatique. tracklisting: a: boxton pipes b1: kakusei b2: seepferdchen

our favorite frankfurters miguel and arno are back with more frolicking, funky and fired up house. the boys have kept busy since their last release on kindisch, out with a bang, (which for a period was heard every weekend in clubs across europe) remixing for labels such as arearemote, below and murmur. oh, and we almost forgot to mention nurturing their label la peña, whose success can be contributed to their no nonsense attitude to releasing only merit worthy house. welcome back kindischs native sons, as they take you an inebriated four-track voyage of the utmost magnitude of rump-jiggling beats. >caña moral< contains all the things that we have grown to love einzelkind for: warm and crunchy beats and a perfected groove all following the chants of tribal vocals. this one might be a tad more pristine than what they have been known to release on their own label, but it does give proof of their ability to construct tightly woven modern beats

marquese, best known for his hit >keep movin< on la pena, has released an outstanding record on niveous proving yet again his talent for dancefloor and deepness. let the weekend begin! >weekend you!< is an excellent tool with a massive kick stomping over a landscape of powerful percussions and repetitive sounds. >la musica< (dawn mix) takes a different path. unique moments emerge as piano, choir and atmospheres move to the same groove, sometimes unfolding more obviously, sometimes more subtle.

supported by sis, ricardo villalobos,loco dice, robert dietz, markus fix... after kicking off with sis bubu ep(mitu001), mitus second release comes from yet another cocolino crew dj/producer. having released in the past on cecille and la pena, sercan is no newcomer to the game. his music, however, does bring something new. the title track, acuerdate, is an elegant percussive house track with a broad range of styles influencing the way it progresses. sercan smartly plays his dance floor tactics, making sure that with every new element that is added, all of your inner senses awaken… the b side kicks off with flow show, a track that james brown would work his dance moves on. the balance between funk /house / tech / groove is simply right. on the last track of the ep, sercan lays down an ongoing house vibe that will make evry single head nod. a transcendent effect elegantly kicks in, as the tracks old school feel slowly kick in and do it climaxes
